Ball hits the wood
Strokes
Vincent Heveroh Asked 10 years ago
Sometimes when I hit the ball I can hear it hit the wood. Does this mean that I have to get thicker or harder rubber?

Hi Vincent,
It may just mean that you need to brush the ball more on contact. If your are contacting the ball flat it will sink into the wood rather than utilising the spin of the rubber.

Forehand Counterhit
The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:
- Your feet position
- Your start position
- Your finish position
If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
